JAMESVILLE

Discovering
Dani

Jamesville, Book 1

Dani O'Rourke is
no stranger to hard work. She’s been raising her two brothers alone since their
parents died and she owns and operates her own business, O’Rourke Cleaning
Services. Spending all her time working and looking after her family means
she’s never had time for men. And if she was going to look for a relationship,
it wouldn’t be with an arrogant and cynical man like Burke.

A brush with death
has successful businessman Burke questioning his priorities. He’s come to
Jamesville for some peace and quiet to figure out what to do with the rest of
his life. Catching a woman breaking into his cabin certainly isn’t part of his
plan, nor is being attracted to her after her finds out just how wrong he was
about her.

Burke finds
himself caught up in Dani’s family, but is there room in such a gentle woman’s
life for a man as hard as him?

Jake Tanner needs a wife, and
who better to ask to marry him and help raise his orphaned niece than his best
friend, Rebecca. He knows it’ll change their relationship, and becoming a
family won’t be easy. But Jake has to convince her they can make it work,
because he just can’t imagine doing it all with anyone else.

Rebecca Gentry has made a life
she’s content with. She has her own sewing business, a lovely apartment, and a
few good friends, especially the one she’s secretly loved for years. When Jake
makes a rather unromantic proposal, Rebecca considers it even though she knows
she’ll probably end up with a broken heart.

They know becoming a family
won’t be easy, but unforeseen problems test them at every turn, and it quickly
becomes clear both of their hearts are on the line.

After being shot in the line of
duty, New York City cop Patrick O’Rourke has returned to his hometown of
Jamesville to recuperate. His partner is dead, and his career depends on how
well he recovers from his serious injuries. He doesn’t plan on staying any
longer than he has to, and the last thing he wants is to get involved in a
relationship with a local woman.

Shannon Brooker’s life
certainly didn’t turn out the way she’d planned, and she’s back in Jamesville

crush on what feels like a lifetime ago.

Shannon wants to hire Patrick to
protect her, but he soon wants to do more than just protect her body.

Her
father’s death has brought Cyndi Marks back to Jamesville, and she’s determined
to settle back in her hometown and lay her ghosts to rest once and for all. But
not everyone is happy to see her. Every small town has secrets, and Jamesville
has secrets some would kill to protect. When Cyndi needs help, there’s only one
person in town she can trust.

Shamus
O’Rourke is happy living in Jamesville. He loves his job, his family, and small
town living. All that’s missing is someone to share it with. When he runs in to
Cyndi and helps her with a flat tire, he’s drawn to the reserved, wary woman.
He’s pretty sure the feeling is mutual, even though she tries to deny it.

When
Cyndi’s life is threatened, just about everyone in town is a suspect, and she’s
not sure her fledgling relationship with Shamus can stand up to the town and
his family’s concerns. The only things she is sure of is that she can’t see
herself surviving in Jamesville without the younger man.

one-night stand.

Former cop Gill Baron has come
to Jamesville to visit friends and figure out what’s next for him. He likes the

can’t get out of his head after a scorching night.

Gill wasn't looking for a relationship, and the town is quickly abuzz with the news of the local lawyer and her one-night stand, but the attraction between her and Gill is too deep to deny.
